          @aaronm That sounds like a nice work around, Moem. I too, use Signal on multiple devices. It's probably the most important app for me on a phone, for use with family and so on. Thanks a lot! πŸ™‚

            @aaronm Hey All, I have finally installed UT following this:
            https://cloud.hallo-welt-systeme.de/s/He9ZsS7Kmn6X7Cr

            I hear that UT is more secure that android and so on. Does this mean I am safer logging into my bank account, for example, using Morph on UT, vs firefox on android?

            Thanks!

              @Moem Hi Moem,

              How, may I ask, did you get Waydroid working?

              Thanks!

                I installed it through the Waydroid Helper app. But do note that I'm not using a Volla, I'm using a Oneplus 5t. Shouldn't matter, but maybe it does?

                Is currently using an Op5t
                Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop.

                  That is a widely held misconception. UT is more privacy focused than Android, not necessarily more secure. That means the OS does not spy on you or collect your data.

                  I tend not to use bank websites on any mobile device as it is much more difficult to see if you are not being redirected because you clicked on a dodgy link.

                      @arubislander Thank you so much for bringing clarity to my suspicion on this, Arubislander. I think you're wise not to use a phone for financial use cases. I've just decided I'm no longer going to either.

                        To complete on the security aspect, the confinement of apps makes Ubuntu Touch also more secure in this way.
                        Meaning that installing a "bad" app will have a lesser impact.

                        The trade off at the moment is that we have an unlocked bootloader which creates security issues in case of stolen or lost device.

                          Hi, the link is dead now. Can you please elaborate, what was there? A guide on installation of the UBT on volla x23?
